What part of the country?
Your prices look reasonable. Raking is €15 an acre about here.
I pay €120/acre for sp silage including mowing and Raking.
Pay €6:50 a bale for silage also. That includes stacking though. Baled by contractor I draw to yard and he wraps and stacks. I mow for him.
Do my own slurry and dung is priced by the pile iykwim.
Edited to say those prices are paid on the day the job is done.

To be honest, very sick of this ****e. Think the farm and forestry section has really fallen away in the last 12months or so. Some really good posters with good views/advice gone who i have learnt a lot from. Will be deleting boards from the phone may log in and out but i am out for now. Bye for now.
